Linux antivirus - Clamav and Clamtk

ClamAV is an open source antivirus engine for detecting trojans, viruses, malware & other malicious threats.

This scans for linux and windows malicious software

clamav man page
http://linux.die.net/man/1/clamscan

askubuntu page
http://askubuntu.com/a/560947

update the virus definitions

sudo freshclam


To check all files on the computer, displaying the name of each file:

clamscan -r


Check file and move infected files to another folder

clamscan -r --move=/home/USER/VIRUS /home/USER


remove infected files

clamscan -r --remove /home/USER



If the clamav tells you that there is a new version of clamav do not worry about it the most important thing to have latest database (freshclam)
If clamtk tells you that there is a new gui version again don't worry about it the important thing is the database
